Interesting....a friend of mine has a daughter learning Greek. She asked if Greek comics used "ΩΩΩΩΩΩΩ" (Omega is the last letter of the Greek alphabet) to depict snoring.
I wanted to know the answer, so I embarked on a journey of Greek comic searches for people snoring and eventually I found this comic [1]. It shows people using Greek to communicate, but then the person sleeping is saying "ZZZZZZZ". I find it hilarious and interesting because Greek doesn't have the letter Z.

- tspiteri 11y agoGreek does have the letter Ζ, which is the capital Greek zeta. It is written just like the Latin capital Z. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zeta https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zeta
